NoBabel Translator

NoBabel™ AutoAligner User Guide

Introduction

With NoBabel AutoAligner, automated alignment of legacy translations is effortless, fast, and accurate. Pre-matched document pairs as a prerequisite for alignment is a thing of the past. The AutoAligner detects document pairs automatically and ignores documents that do not have translated equivalents. It correctly aligns properly translated text including glossaries alphabetically sorted in their respective languages. Poorly translated text is excluded from AutoAligner TMs.

You can upload any number of documents in any of the supported languages. NoBabel will sort them and then create Source/Target TMs from them. The documents do not need to follow any specific naming conventions, nor do their languages have to be identified in advance.

NoBabel Aligner supports all English, French, Italian, German, and Spanish (EFIGS) bidirectional language pairs.

Also it supports in both directions English paired with:

Dutch
Polish
Portuguese
Russian

Arabic
Chinese
Japanese
Korean

For the AutoAligner you are charged for the number of TUs in each purchased AutoAligner TM. If you do not deem the TM(s) generated by the AutoAligner worthwhile, you do not have to purchase anything.
